Forms of Fire – theatre piece created and produced by Aureola LLC

drama | dance | experimental score | projected visuals | interactive-immersive sculpture

In our theatre piece, we tell story of 3 trafficked characters, and explore how and if those derailing experiences may (or may not) be overcome. Investigating and representing how the mind/body reroutes that derailed internal flow is the fundament of this piece

We deploy the public mirrors of drama, dance, projection, music and immersive performance-installation to metaphorically depict the manner in which trafficking (external constraint) translates to wounds (internal constraint) inside the body. That is, how bodies receive and process wounds, as well as how damaging inputs ultimately reroute the lanes of the brain

Whatever Gets You Through the Night: a Story of Sherherezade + Andrei Sauvé -– by Andrei Codrescu

Wonder Weaver – by Lynnea Villannova

in progress 2022-2023 Aureola LLC

Aureola is pleased to announce the development of a screen work which thematically weaves of two of Andrei’s published works with a third, new tale. The finished piece celebrates and elucidates the essential and generative properties of story

Conceived as ‘stories within stories’, one tale threads through the next. Each is timely due the subject matter of oppression, especially of women

A triad of truly unique yet universal stories, script finalization anticipated winter 2023/spring 2024

We love these stories –– Ask us more here
